Francesca is currently MD of the Penguin Children’s division which comprises Puffin, Ladybird, Frederick Warne and our licensing media and entertainment imprint Sunbird and BBC Children’s Books. Before that she was MD of Puffin for nearly nine years and before that she ran Orchard Books at Hachette.
